GIRL ABOUT LIFE BLOG

1. Grow and cultivate an audience for this here blog. I have had this blog for about 5years now and I haven’t seen any significant growth. I would love for things to change in the next five years,
2. I would really love to style a major campaign or style somebody influential. I love fashion and sharing my style with the world is a dream.
3. Collaborate. I love featuring people on the blog and would love to be featured in other blogs or fashion platforms. Imagine that J
4. Curate more. I want to curate my Instagram page and this blog more. It would help me de-clutter my brain I think and get my creativity across. Lol I think I am creative
5. Work with a brand as their influencer because why not??
6. Hopefully leave pharmacy for the fashion world, wouldn’t that be great?
7. Blog more ofcourse.
8. Experiment with photography. I love taking pictures and would love to explore that side of  the creative industry.
9. Work in a different country for a month or a year whether be it pharmacy work or fashion work. I think being in a different country, alone really teaches you a lot about yourself and the world. I once read a quote that perfectly articulates the point I want to convey here and it’s really heart-breaking that I can’t find it.
10. Go back to school for fashion either for textile and design or business economics. I don’t know why I’d want to do that to myself again.

1. Buy and own a car. I have wanted a car for as long as I can remember. I already know what car I want and I am getting my licence in a week or 2 so that’s really close I think.
2. Buy property. I really want to buy my mother a house and then buy myself property either for investment or to just to live in.
3. Cultivate friendships and beautiful relationships. I find it really hard to make friends and I would really like to make more authentic connections in the next few years of my life, connections or relationships  that are genuine and awesome.
4. Travel the world. I honestly need to get out of South Africa, atleast once a year.
5. Health. I just had a baby and I feel like everything inside and out has been moved around and rearranged. I don’t feel healthy and I want to work on my health going into my 30s and make sure I am in tip top shape, this is extremely important to me.
6. See a dermatologist. I have had acne for as long as I can remember and I really want to get rid of it now. I want great skin and I am willing to pay for it LOL
7. Spoil mama. I want to give this woman everything I can, I am where I am, I am who I am because of her.
8. Be financially savvy. I want my money to work for me not the other way around.
9. Work on communicating. I am the worst communicator and I really want to work on that. When they say communication is key they are talking the truth. I have suffered so much because of my lack of communication skills.
10. Build a warm, comfortable life for my daughter. Teach her that life is beautiful and precious. Provide for her and teach her to dream.

1. Learn how to swim. I need to learn how to swim I am a 25 year old who can’t swim. This can’t be my life.
2. Bake a cake. Things like baking and cooking are good for me and myself esteem I have learnt over the years. Starting something from scratch and finishing it is fulfilling and I would really love to bake a beautiful tasty cake before the big 30.
3. Garden. I have always wanted to plant stuff and see them grow. Plus organic is the way to go, always.
4. Buy a designer bag, like from a designer store, literally a life long dream.
5. Start road tripping. It is a great way to explore. I am literally itching to get in a car and just drive for hours and hours with people I love and enjoy.
6. Plan a party for a loved one. I would love to celebrate a person I love with a fun and fabulous party.
7. Skinny dip in the Maldives, hence why a broad must learn how to swim.
8. Enroll into a dance class.
9. Go to a concert. I have never been to a concert or festival and I really don’t want to reach the age of 30 without going to one. Coechella would be a great start LOL.
10. Dye my hair platinum blonde. Am I too old for that??

The new year always brings about that sweet feeling of a do over, a renewed hope, the opportunity to rebrand and I love that feeling. It never lasts long enough. This year is quite different. It is the 8th of February and I am still hopeful, I am still optimistic and I am still excited for this year. The year 2018, the year that I promised myself to make up for 2017.

I have finally given birth. By the 9th month it feels like you have been pregnant forever hence the use of FINALLY. My daughter (yes it's a girl) is going to be 2 weeks tomorrow. Some of you may have not known about my pregnancy since I did not mention it here. It was such a confusing/ amazing journey. I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I was pregnant for a whole 9 months and I am now a mother to a beautiful, most adorable baby. It feels so surreal to be honest, sometimes I really struggle with the reality of it all along side the struggles of raising a little one. I mean babies cry, they cry  A LOT lol and sometimes you don't know why they crying so it's really frustrating. I am really blessed for the support that I have in terms of family. I don't know how we would be navigating this journey without them. I am really looking forward to seeing her grow and mature. Little humans are truly a blessing, they just kinda shift your perspective on life.

I am currently on maternity leave. I will be moving to Mpumalanga in a couple of months. When people asked me last year where I wanted to do my community service I always said Witbank followed with a "Don't ask me why I just feel like it is where I need to be". I am starting to regret it a little because there is so much drama around my post and it's really annoying. I have faith that God will handle it though. I am just leaving everything to Him now because I have done all I could. I am just going to take this time and enjoy my daughter, read a lot, set my intentions for this new year and carry on with this positive light that I have in my heart right now

I don't really know what this post is about. I didn't quite think about it, I just took out my laptop and started typing.
ANYWAY

I hope you guys are having a fabulous new year.

Thanks for reading :)
